What controls the company name displayed in the UAC prompt if the prompt is displayed as a result of a CoCreateAsAdmin call? Right now our prompt is showing "Microsoft Corporation", which doesn't look good coming from our application. Is there somewhere the company name needs to be registered (e.g. the registry) for the COM component? Thanks, David

IIRC, you get this behaviour if the DLL in question is loaded from the Windows/System directory - Our Friends in Redmond assume that anything in there is theirs by right. Install the Dll elsewhere on the machine (it's a COM Component so its physical location is largely irrelevant) and you'll get a /different/ dialog. So long as your code is digitally signed, you'll still get something sensible and not the "An unknown program ... !!" one. HTH, Phill W.
